00:00Gabongan Rakyat Sabah Deputy Secretary General Armizan Muhammad Ali has begged Sabah UMNO Chief Bung Mokhtar Radin's call for GRS to face off against Barisan National in the upcoming Sabah state election.
00:16Armizan said Bung's wish for GRSBN cooperation to be considered only after the state election was reasonable and should be honored.
00:26He said only by going head to head can the two coalitions put to rest the issue of who betrayed whom and who actually commands support.
00:35Armizan, who is also the domestic trade and cost of living minister, said this was his personal view and not an official GRS position.
00:45He was responding to Bung's remarks on June 3 that discussions on electoral cooperation should wait until after the state election.
00:55Armizan said GRS, in principle, remains open to working with Pakatan Harapan, its current partner in the Sabah government.
